  2. Padé approximant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padé_approximant

    Padé approximant. In mathematics, a Padé approximant is the "best" approximation of a function near a specific point by a rational function of given order. Under this technique, the approximant's power series agrees with the power series of the function it is approximating. The technique was developed around 1890 by Henri Padé, but goes back ...

    then the rational function R m, n occupies (r + 1) 2. cells in the Padé table, from position (m, n) through position (m+r, n+r), inclusive. In other words, if the same rational function appears more than once in the table, that rational function occupies a square block of cells within the table. This result is known as the block theorem.

  4. NumPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    numpy.org. NumPy (pronounced / ˈnʌmpaɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [ 3 ] The predecessor of NumPy, Numeric, was originally created by Jim Hugunin with ...

  5. Root-finding algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-finding_algorithm

    Appearance. In numerical analysis, a root-finding algorithm is an algorithm for finding zeros, also called "roots", of continuous functions. A zero of a function f is a number x such that f(x) = 0. As, generally, the zeros of a function cannot be computed exactly nor expressed in closed form, root-finding algorithms provide approximations to ...

  6. Zero of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_of_a_function

    In mathematics, a zero (also sometimes called a root) of a real -, complex -, or generally vector-valued function , is a member of the domain of such that vanishes at ; that is, the function attains the value of 0 at , or equivalently, is a solution to the equation . [1] A "zero" of a function is thus an input value that produces an output of 0.

  7. Chirp Z-transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirp_Z-transform

    The use of zero-padding for the convolution in Bluestein's algorithm deserves some additional comment. Suppose we zero-pad to a length M ≥ 2 N –1. This means that a n is extended to an array A n of length M , where A n = a n for 0 ≤ n < N and A n = 0 otherwise—the usual meaning of "zero-padding".

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Contents. Python syntax and semantics. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java.

  9. Proximal operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximal_operator

    Proximal operator. In mathematical optimization, the proximal operator is an operator associated with a proper, [ note 1 ] lower semi-continuous convex function from a Hilbert space to , and is defined by: [ 1 ] For any function in this class, the minimizer of the right-hand side above is unique, hence making the proximal operator well-defined.
